It doesn't take much pressure or cranking with the X-Choke's to keep the trailer from moving. I use a power drill and just snug it and the trailer doesn't move. I have been on unlevel sites and had...

I went with the 16K Reese Titan hitch. It is a dual jaw system that hugs the pin all the way around. The good thing and the reason I bought it is that it eliminated any chucking. The bad, it is so...

I get 10 on average pulling my 5'er. Like McFarmall said, the power and torque you get with a Ecoboost is very deceiving and has far exceeded my expectations. I do have a Bully Dog Triple Gas tuner...

I personally don't use the micro and I wouldn't use the stove so either would be fine with me. Only complaint about the outdoor kitchen is that it is pretty tall. I've noticed even on level sites...

By bet is on the 30amp fuse near the battery. Happened to me two Jayco's ago. However, I am not a betting man. I am just a person who was once blessed with this problem.
